Dāna?

Assuming that you've not yet given all your disposable income to worthy causes (e.g. based on givewell.org suggested charities)…

assuming that you have some decent idea of what I do, not only to spread teachings (Dharma) but also to support communities (Sangha) online, and that you are therefore in a position to fund a cause that others will not fund…

assuming you've not given all your alms to the saṅgha just to build some pointless, 177-feet tall, Maitreya statue in Mongolia…

and assuming you value Buddhism as a living tradition rather than a collection of books collecting dust (after and/or even before reading) and of "guided meditation" recordings…

I could do with your help toward spreading the Dharma and supporting the saṅgha:koan.mu/donate.htm
